Question

I kept my baby girl's name Ruqayyah. Is it good. Please let me know and tell me something about Ruqayyah (Radiyallahu Anha).

Answer

It is a good name. It is the name of the daughter of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam). Hazrat Ruqayya (Radiyallahu Anha) was married to Hazrat Usmaan (Radiyallahu Anhu).

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
